My jaw is on the floor. The delicate flavors dance across your tongue in the most amazing way. Balanced. Every sip gets better. A truly blissful wine. — 5 years ago

Sweet honeysuckle up front. Finished with dried apricot. Almost a warm apple pie feel. Really interesting, but the sweetness is a little off-putting. — 5 years ago

Acid upfront- apricot and pineapple. Very bright and playful. Finishes a little earthy and herbaceous. Great glass with friends, keep my mind working through the flavor. — 5 years ago

I totally understand I opened this before I probably should, but I don’t regret it one but. New World Cab Franc made to absolute perfection. Smell brings a floral, green earth with butter/olive oil. First sip- (pure bliss) blueberry pie and dried lilac. As it sits, you get charred poblano peppers. American Oak really delivers. A truly inspiration wine, with a lot of thought. — 5 years ago

Tons of fruit layers to this great Chianti. Bright berry and red fruit, plum, cherries- it just keeps on giving. Hints of pear on the back end. A great vintage! — 5 years ago

Unreal. I could dissect the wine all day: but nothing is as important as how complex this wine is and the way it makes me think. Fresh, bright red fruit, moderate spice on the back. Oak comes and goes. But just remember this: this wine genuinely warms my heart. From flavor to experience. Amazing. Tyler is a phenomenal wine maker. — 5 years ago

A-ma-zing. So smokey and peppery on the nose, the taste completely back it up. With bold and bright red cherry, oak and pepper on the back of the tongue. It sits and grows in flavor. The body really keeps giving. — 5 years ago

Classic style meets new age refinement. This Sangiovese really flexes what the earth gave it. One the nose, I’m getting a lot of black licorice and cherry cola. Hints of vanilla and oak follow closely behind. The color has a bit of orange rust hue (from the classic techniques Josh uses when making the wine). This wine has such purpose and is executed so well. A great wine!! — 5 years ago
